Definitions

  • the present invention is related to the invention described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/503,041, filed concurrently herewith in the name of inventors R. Laroia et al. and entitled “Signal Construction, Detection and Estimation for Uplink Timing Synchronization and Access Control in a Multi-Access Wireless Communication System,” which is incorporated by reference herein.
  • the present invention relates generally to wireless communication systems and more particularly to techniques for implementing uplink timing synchronization and access control in a multi-access wireless communication system.
  • Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing has been recently proposed as a multi-access scheme for use in the next generation cellular wireless systems.
  • a critical issue in the design of these systems is the requirement of strict timing synchronization and access control.
  • timing synchronization and access control techniques have been extensively studied and many such techniques are known in the art, synchronization and access control in an OFDM multi-user environment presents a number of unique challenges not adequately addressed by conventional techniques.
  • OFDM transmission often requires that all signal paths from all mobiles arrive at a given base station synchronized to within a specified cyclic extension of the base station sampling period. Consequently, OFDM timing synchronization necessitates some form of coordination and feedback amongst the users in a cell.
  • ISI intersymbol interference
  • OFDM synchronization errors must be absorbed into the above-noted cyclic extension, synchronization errors must be much smaller than the symbol period.
  • this fractional symbol timing accuracy is difficult to obtain from regular OFDM data symbols. This is due to the fact that OFDM data symbols typically comprise linearly modulated discrete tones whose periods can be as large as the symbol period. Accurately estimating timing from such narrowband signals can be difficult.
  • the invention provides improved timing synchronization and access control techniques particularly well suited for use in the uplink channel of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) multi-access wireless system.
  • mobiles transmit certain timing and access signals in dedicated timing and access intervals.
  • the timing and access intervals may occur regularly within an uplink data stream, and all uplink data transmission may be suspended during these intervals. The suspension of data transmission allows pre-specified, wideband timing and access signals to be used.
  • timing synchronization and access control allows timing synchronization and access control to be separated from data communications. This separation permits timing and access to use signaling which is different than that of data communication, and eliminates interference between these communications. For example, timing and access signals can be allocated wider bandwidths than data signals so that the mobile timing can be estimated more easily from the timing and access signals. Also, by using dedicated timing and access intervals, “new” mobiles, i.e., mobiles attempting an initial access to a given base station, which are generally not timing synchronized or power controlled, do not disrupt the data traffic during their access attempts.
  • each base station in an OFDM wireless system synchronizes its downlink and uplink timing.
  • the downlinks and uplinks of different base stations need not be synchronized.
  • a mobile desiring uplink access with a given base station starts with an open-loop timing synchronization by synchronizing its transmission timing to the received downlink. This open-loop downlink synchronization automatically synchronizes the uplink to within the round-trip propagation delay between the base station and mobile.
  • the mobile can attempt to access an uplink channel and improve the uplink synchronization. For this purpose, the mobile selects one signal from a designated set of pre-specified access signals, and transmits the selected signal in any of the timing and access intervals. In each timing and access interval, the base station searches for the presence of one or more of the access signals. If the access signal is detected and the access is granted, the base station can transmit an acknowledgment in a reserved downlink channel. The acknowledgment may contain initial uplink and downlink channel assignments along with initial timing and power corrections. The mobile can then begin call initialization on the assigned channels.
  • the access signals may be made generic in the sense that neither the mobile nor the service being requested is identified in the access signal itself. All identification and call initialization is performed on assigned channels after the acknowledgment is granted.
  • this two-stage procedure keeps transmission in a set of random-access, asynchronous timing and access intervals to a minimum. Additionally, using generic access signals in designated intervals reduces the search space for the base station.
  • mobiles After the initial channel acquisition and timing synchronization, mobiles continue to perform re-synchronization for the duration of their connection with the same base station. For re-synchronization, mobiles transmit pre-determined timing re-synchronization signals to the base station in the timing and access intervals. The base station measures the arrival time of the signal, and sends appropriate timing corrections to the mobile. The continual re-synchronization allows the mobiles to track clock drifts and changes in the propagation delay from the mobile to the base station.
  • FIG. 1 shows an exemplary arrangement of timing and access intervals in an illustrative embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 2 shows a mobile uplink access and synchronization system in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 3 shows a base station uplink access and synchronization system in accordance with the invention.
  • the present invention will be illustrated below in conjunction with an exemplary multiple access wireless communication system based on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). It should be understood, however, that the invention is not limited to use with any particular type of wireless communication system.
  • OFDM orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
  • mobiles transmit certain pre-specified, wideband timing and access signals in designated timing and access intervals.
  • the timing and access intervals occur regularly within an uplink data stream, and all uplink data transmission is suspended during these intervals.
  • the timing and access intervals are dedicated in the sense that regular uplink data transmission is suspended in the intervals.
  • the use of the dedicated intervals permits the data and timing to use different signaling, and prevents new mobiles that have not yet synchronized from interfering with synchronized data transmission.
  • the locations of the timing and access intervals within the uplink data stream should be known to all mobiles desiring uplink access or synchronization.
  • the timing and access intervals can be placed at fixed, possibly periodic, locations in the uplink frames.
  • the frequency and size of the intervals represent basic design parameters. More frequent intervals permit a larger number of access attempts and a greater rate of re-synchronization. Larger intervals allow for longer access signals which can improve the detection and estimation accuracy. However, since there is no uplink data transmission during the timing and access intervals, the size and frequency of the intervals represent a direct overhead on the uplink data bandwidth.
  • a timing and access system using the above-noted dedicated intervals will be described in conjunction with the following three stages of a mobile's uplink communication: 1) initial open-loop synchronization; 2) access and initial uplink synchronization; and 3) uplink re-synchronization. Each of these uplink communication stages will be described in detail below.
  • the mobile In open-loop synchronization, the mobile identifies a base station to communicate with, establishes downlink synchronization, and approximately synchronizes the uplink. In particular, after conducting the open-loop synchronization, the mobiles will be able to approximately locate the timing and access intervals.
  • a mobile desiring access begins by identifying if a carrier is available in its area, and if so, synchronizes its receiver to the downlink from an appropriate base station.
  • the mobile initially synchronizes its transmit timing to its receive timing.
  • every base station in the illustrative embodiment synchronizes its uplink and downlink timing. There is no need in such a system for different base stations to synchronize their uplink or downlink with one another.
  • An important aspect of the initial open-loop synchronization is that, after the mobile has synchronized its transmit and receive timing to the base station downlink, the mobile uplink will be automatically initially synchronized to the base station uplink with an error of at most one round trip propagation delay.
  • This open-loop synchronization accuracy is not intended to be sufficient for the data transmission. It is only intended to provide an approximate level of synchronization adequate to begin the access procedure. In particular, since the timing and access intervals occur at fixed points within the uplink stream, mobiles which have completed the open-loop synchronization will be able to locate the timing and access intervals within the round-trip propagation delay.
  • each base station constantly transmits some form of downlink pilot tones from which mobiles can acquire the carrier frequency, and the downlink symbol and frame timing.
  • This downlink synchronization may be performed with standard phase lock loops and other devices in a conventional manner, e.g., using well-known techniques such as those described in S. Gupta, “Phase-Locked Loops,” Proceedings IEEE, Vol. 63, pp. 291–306, February 1975; W. Lindsey and C. Chie, “A survey of digital phase-locked loops,” Proceedings IEEE, Vol. 69, pp. 410–432, 1981; L.
  • any mobile after listening to the pilots, can select a base station, acquire the downlink timing from the base station, and tune its uplink transmitter timing to the downlink with no timing errors.
  • downlink synchronization can be conducted without having mobiles transmit any data to the base station. Consequently, mobiles can maintain open-loop synchronization, even when the channel access is not immediately required, or after a channel use is completed. In this way, the open-loop re-synchronization does not need to be repeated in the case of multiple channel accesses. This will reduce the access latency for infrequently transmitting mobiles.
  • the mobile After the initial open-loop synchronization, the mobile is ready to acquire and refine the synchronization of uplink and downlink channels.
  • a mobile that wishes to acquire an uplink channel transmits one of a set of designated access signals during a timing and access interval. In each timing and access interval, the base station searches for the presence of one or more of the access signals. The detection of an access signal indicates an access attempt from some mobile.
  • base station access control logic determines if the access can be granted. Also, the base station can estimate the arrival time and power of the received signal. From the arrival time, the base station can estimate the initial timing error of the mobile. This timing error will be error from the open-loop synchronization, which is the round-trip propagation delay between the mobile and base station.
  • the base station transmits an access acknowledgment back to the mobile in a reserved downlink channel.
  • the location of the downlink channel for the acknowledgments should be known to the mobile.
  • the access acknowledgment can also contain a timing and power correction, initial uplink and downlink channel assignments, and possibly other call set-up information.
  • the mobile After receiving the access acknowledgment, the mobile can adjust its timing and power accordingly and begin communication on the assigned channels.
  • the access signal may not be detected. Also, even if detected, the base station may decide not to grant the access if resources are not available. If the access is denied or not detected, the base station can transmit a negative acknowledgment or simply not transmit any acknowledgment.
  • Access control logic and the general problem of scheduling resources are well-understood in the art and therefore will not be described in detail herein.
  • accesses should not be granted if the base station believes the timing has not been sufficiently accurately estimated for the mobile to begin with proper timing synchronization.
  • One way to determine whether the timing estimate is sufficiently accurate is to check that the received signal power of the access signal is sufficiently high.
  • the access signals that the mobiles transmit are generic, in the sense that the mobile or the services being requested are not identified in the access signal itself. Mobiles conduct their identification, authentication and any other call set-up on the assigned channels after their timing and power have been corrected. This two-stage access guarantees that the mobiles perform the call initialization while synchronized on an assigned, non-random access channel, thereby reducing the resources and delays required for call initialization. Additionally, by using a set of generic signals in the timing and access intervals, the base station need only search a small set of signals in some particular intervals, thus simplifying the search procedure for random access.
  • the base stations and mobiles can use a combination of collision detection and/or random backoff and random signal selection schemes.
  • collision detection the base station searches for the presence of more than one of the same access signals in the same timing and access interval.
  • a negative acknowledgment or no acknowledgment can be transmitted on the broadcast channel.
  • a specific collision alert signal can also be sent.
  • Mobiles that do not receive acknowledgments or receive negative acknowledgments can re-attempt access in subsequent timing and access intervals. To reduce the probability of repeated collisions on subsequent attempts, each mobile can randomly select a new access signal from the designated access signal set. Additionally, in a manner similar to that of a conventional slotted ALOHA multi-access technique, the mobiles can exercise a random backoff between access attempts.
  • collision detection may be difficult for the base station to perform. For example, if the delay spread is large, copies of the same signal sent by multiple mobiles can be confused with multipath copies from one mobile. When collisions occur and are not detected, more than one mobile may begin the second stage of access on the same assigned channel. To detect this error, the base station and mobiles can perform two possible tests.
  • the base station may perform an error-detection coding check on the data on the assigned uplink channel. If more than one mobile has used the same channel with similar power, the data on the uplink channel is likely to be corrupted and fail the check. In this case, the base station can transmit a signal directing all mobiles to drop the channels, and the mobiles can re-start the access procedure with appropriate random backoff and random signal selection described previously.
  • mobiles can transmit a unique identification in the call initialization on the assigned uplink channel, and the base station can re-transmit the received identification back to the mobile in the downlink.
  • a mobile can thereby confirm that it is the intended user of the assigned channels. If more than one mobile uses the channel, but one is received with much higher power, the base station will receive and feedback only the dominant mobile's identification. In this way, the non-dominant mobiles will not receive their identification and will drop off the channel and re-start the access procedure with appropriate random backoff and random signal selection as described previously.
  • a mobile After acquiring initial channels and timing, mobiles will need to continually re-synchronize to track changes in the propagation delay and timing drifts between the mobile and the base station.
  • a mobile can transmit a pre-determined timing re-synchronization signal to the base station in a pre-determined timing and access interval.
  • the base station can measure the arrival time of the signal, and communicate an appropriate timing correction back to the mobile in a downlink channel.
  • Re-synchronization may use a subset of the timing and access intervals, which is separate from those used for initial timing synchronization and access control.
  • re-synchronization and initial access control may use the same timing and access intervals but with different sets of signals.
  • the frequency of re-synchronization need only be sufficient to cover the maximum possible clock drift and change in round-trip propagation delay. Consequently, all mobiles will not need to re-synchronize in every timing and access interval.
  • each mobile that does re-synchronize is free to use a larger bandwidth signal for more accurate timing estimation.
  • the reduced number of mobiles re-synchronizing in the timing and access interval frees bandwidth for access signals, if re-synchronization and initial access control use the same timing and access intervals.
  • Each mobile's re-synchronization schedule i.e., assignment of timing re-synchronization signals and timing and access intervals, can be determined in the call initialization.
  • the base station can also explicitly request a re-synchronization from the mobile if necessary. In this case, the base station sends to the mobile a re-synchronization request in the downlink, along with the assignment of a timing and access interval and a re-synchronization signal for the mobile to carry out re-synchronization.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates an example of a simple re-synchronization schedule in which the timing and access intervals for the mobile's re-synchronization recur periodically. Every mobile, when entering the system, is assigned to one of M groups. In each timing interval, a particular one of the M groups of mobiles is synchronized (as indicated by the solid black timing slots), while the other M-1 groups suspend their transmission (as indicated by the shaded timing slots).
  • the groups to be synchronized may be selected, e.g., in a round robin manner, i.e., group 1 is synchronized in timing interval 1, group 2 in interval 2, etc., with the synchronization cycle repeating every M timing intervals. Numerous other resynchronization schedules may be used in conjunction with the present invention, and will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 Examples of particular arrangements of processing elements suitable for implementing the above-described illustrative embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 . It should be understood that these are examples only, and many other arrangements could be used.

  • the system 100 resides in a mobile, and is responsible for channel acquisition and timing synchronization signaling for that mobile.
  • the system 100 also adjusts the uplink symbol clock based on timing offset measurements from a base station.
